Bookmark and Share



2009 has sure been an eventful year - and to celebrate such a year, Google Zeitgeist has released the list of their Top 10 Most Searched terms in several different categories for several countries. Among those countries was South Korea. In the Entertainment / Celebrity Category, the girls of Girls' Generation / SNSD came out on top.

Top 10 Searched Celebrities:
SNSD / Girls' Generation
Kim Ah Joong
Jang Ja Yeon
UEE
2NE1
Jessica Gomez
Baek Ji Young
2PM
Big Bang
Taeyeon

I'm surprised that both TVXQ / DBSK / Tohoshinki and Jaebeom weren't on the list, but then again I believe most Koreans use Korean search portals such as Naver, rather than Google for their searches.
